Question of the Day: Flanges or Flangeless?

[lilseanjohn11]

Hey guys do you prefer flanges or flangeless grips why or why not?

 

[Justin Vogelsberger]

i ride flange less on my scoot and my bike only because it looks cleaner and i don't really see the point of it being their, on my bike i hold near where a flange would be and if i left it on their it would eventually give me a blister(happens a lot with flanges)
and on my scoot i hold on the very out most part of the bar so i wouldn't even be close to the flange so what ever purpose it serves would be totally useless

Flangeless. Looks better and the flange just gets in the way for me.

with flanges, because they teach me to catch my grips instead of the bar.

Flanges protect you when doing dialed x-ups.
